I cant take full credit, my uncle is a licensed mechanic/body man. This is the 5th car he's painted for me, and he's taught me alot over the years dealing with prep work to get a good paint job. The paint color actually came from my first car which was another major rebuild project, so it kinda fit.

I was originally thinking of just respraying black, but the car is original enough and rare enough around here that I wanted it to stand out. With there only being a handful of v6 mx3s and maybe a dozen 4 cyl mx3s within a 200km radius, chances are it'll be the first mx3 people have seen around here in a while. After sinking almost $3000 into restoring the car in the last 6 months, I'll be happy to have it on the road again.
